James Taylor Lyrics - 1968

[ Buy James Taylor ]

CHORUS:
In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina
Can't you see the sun shine
Can't you just feel the moon shine
Ain't it just like a friend of mine
To hit me from behind
I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind

Karin, she's a silver sun
You best walk her way and watch it shine
Watch her watch the morning come
A silver tear appearing now
I'm crying, ain't I
I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind

There ain't no doubt in no one's mind
That love's the finest thing around
Whisper something soft and kind
And hey, babe, the sky's on fire
I'm dyin', ain't I
I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind

CHORUS

Dark and silent late last night
I think we might have heard the highway calling
Geese in flight and dogs that bite
Signs it might be omens
Say I'm goin', I'm goin'
I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind

It's where the holy host of others standin' 'round me
Still I'm on the dark side of the moon
And it looks like it goes on like this forever
You must forgive me
I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind

CHORUS
